And so, Yunqi, along with Xiaoqi and Qingluan, lingered in the human realm, enjoying delicious food while using the Mirror-Viewing Technique to peep at the gossip of those people.
Influenced by Xiao Qi, Qing Luan also developed a liking for gossip.
That day, as usual, they ate snacks while reading gossip.
Xiao Qi complained, "What's wrong with Bai Ziyu? He's so dramatic about being injured, always wanting Hua Qianrou to carry him? He's supposed to be the young master of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, doesn't he have any shame?"
Qingluan: "..." (ー_ー)!! He'll probably soon no longer be the young master of the fox clan...
Xiao Qi: "Chen Qinghua definitely likes Hua Qianrou!! Look at Bai Ziyu nestled in Hua Qianrou's arms, his face is green with anger, he's jealous of Bai Ziyu, right?"
Qingluan: "..." (ー_ー)!!
Xiao Qi: "Yunxiao is alright. Although it's annoying that he took Hua Qianrou as his disciple, he's very polite and hasn't overstepped his bounds. Apart from occasionally staring blankly at Hua Qianrou's face, he hasn't done anything seriously wrong..."
Qingluan: "..." (ー_ー)!!
These days, Qingluan has gotten used to Xiaoqi's "chatterboxing." She just wants to quietly observe and not respond, otherwise Xiaoqi will definitely get more and more excited! ...
Xiaoqi: "Qiqi, do you think Yunxiao is staring blankly at Hua Qianrou because he's thinking of you through Hua Qianrou's face?! Sure enough! My Qiqi is the most charming!"
"Pfft!" Yun Qi spat out the tea she had just drunk. "Xiao Qi, don't talk nonsense! I've only met Yun Xiao a few times."
Xiaoqi complained, "He wanted to follow you after only meeting you a few times. If you hadn't rejected him, he would definitely have kept following you!"
Yunqi: "..."
Xiao Qi continued, "Besides, look how hard he's cultivating! You said before that you'd let him follow you once his cultivation reached the Tribulation Transcending stage. Judging from his current state, he's preparing to break through to the Tribulation Transcending stage!"
Yunqi: "..." Speechless.
Xiao Qi, caught up in the gossip, asked Yun Qi, "Qi Qi, if Yun Xiao really breaks through to the Tribulation Transcending stage, are you really going to let him follow you?"
Yun Qi sighed and pushed Xiao Qi's face away from hers: "Xiao Qi, you're overthinking it... What if he doesn't want to stay with me when he reaches the Tribulation Transcending stage?"
Xiaoqi: "What if he still wants to stay with you?"
Yunqi: "Then let him come along."
Xiaoqi: "..." (ー_ー)!! Qiqi doesn't play by the rules! Why is this answer different from what I expected?!
Seeing Xiao Qi's bewildered expression, Qing Luan laughed rather unkindly.
The love-hate relationship between Bai Ziyu, Chen Qinghua, and Hua Qianrou continues to unfold every day...
Hua Qianrou would say every day, like a delicate flower, "You are all my most important partners, why can't you get along peacefully for my sake?!"
Xiaoqi immediately retorted: "Peaceful coexistence?! What kind of innocent-sounding rhetoric is this?! It's mind-blowing!!"
Qingluan has become able to accept the new words Xiaoqi occasionally uses and can roughly guess what they mean.
Qingluan: "In this world, the strong are respected! These three don't cultivate properly every day, they're always indulging in love... Are they out of their minds?"
Xiaoqi chimed in: "That's right! It's a problem with their brain! All they think about is love and romance, they're called 'love-obsessed'."
Qingluan: "Um...that's very fitting."
Yunqi said, "Qingluan, you must never learn to be like them, so 'love-obsessed'!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I won't!"
And so, Yunqi and the others watched their "love and hate" unfold for over a year...
The Cloud Soaring in the mirror possesses peak Nascent Soul stage strength and is almost ready to break through to the Tribulation stage.
Yunxiao set up a barrier and a spirit-gathering array, preparing to break through to the Tribulation Transcending stage.
Xiaoqi: "Qiqi, do you think Yunxiao can break through smoothly?"
Yunqi nodded: "Yes."
Xiaoqi: "Why are you so sure?"
Yunqi: "Didn't you hear Qingluan say that Yunxiao's divine soul is powerful? How could someone with such a powerful divine soul not be able to survive this tribulation?"
Xiao Qi: "...That makes sense."
Yunqi and the others watched silently in the mirror as Yunxiao endured one lightning tribulation after another. Yunxiao's body went from barely withstanding the lightning at the beginning to having his skin torn and bleeding later on...
When the first lightning tribulation struck, all the elders of the immortal sect who were not in seclusion rushed over to protect Yunxiao around Xiao Yunfeng.
Yunxiao had no time to rest. During the interval between the next lightning strikes, he quickly ate a Spirit Gathering Pill, sat cross-legged, and began to recover his spiritual power in preparation for the next tribulation.
The disciples of the immortal sect all knew that Uncle-Master Yunxiao was breaking through, so they all stood far away (fearing being caught in the lightning tribulation), watching intently... If they could gain even a sliver of insight from it, it would be an immense opportunity...
Until the final lightning strike landed, spiritual rain began to fall around Yunxiao, and his previously torn and bruised body began to slowly heal...
Seeing that the tribulation had ended, the disciples all approached Xiao Yunfeng. The reason was simple: they wanted to get closer, since a pure spiritual rain had just fallen there, and the spiritual energy in the air was even purer. It would be good to absorb some of it.
Yunxiao stood up; he had finally reached the Tribulation Transcending Stage!
The elders stepped forward to congratulate Yunxiao.
Yunxiao returned the greeting to the elders.
Knowing that Yunxiao wasn't one to enjoy crowds, the elders didn't stay long before taking their leave.
Hua Qianrou stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Master, on successfully transcending your tribulation!"
Yunxiao gave a faint "hmm".
Hua Qianrou looked up at the clouds. Why did she feel that her master had become more distant from her after successfully overcoming his tribulation?
"Master?"
Yunxiao waved his hand: "It's nothing, you may all leave!"
"Yes." Hua Qianrou could only leave reluctantly.
Yunxiao felt that his cultivation had reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, and he suddenly lost interest in Hua Qianrou's face, which was eight parts similar to his own.
Upon returning to his cave, Yunxiao immediately took out the communication talisman Yunqi had given him and contacted her: "Sister Yunqi, my cultivation has reached the Tribulation Transcending stage!"
Yunqi saw Yunxiao pick up the communication talisman in the mirror and sensed something was wrong. Then, the communication talisman on her body went off...
Qingluan and Xiaoqi both looked at Yunqi: "Your Majesty (Qiqi), Yunxiao contacted you as soon as he broke through..."
Qingluan: "It seems that Your Majesty is very important to Yunxiao!"
Xiaoqi: "Qiqi, Yunxiao has already sent you a message, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and reply to him!"
Under the watchful eyes of Qingluan and Xiaoqi, Yunqi replied, "Congratulations on your successful breakthrough!"
Yunxiao asked excitedly and nervously, "Sister Yunqi, can I come to you now?"
"Okay, you can come find me after you've consolidated your cultivation."
"Um."
